Hey there!
I'm a human being based in Bern, Switzerland, since December 23.
I’m curious about the world what led me to study social and cultural anthropology. I’d say I’m open-minded, easy going and up for most proposals. I love to spend time with good people, music, delicious food, being outdoors and active. Currently I'm super excited about exploring dance, especially contact improvisation, and different types of body work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think it's an amazing way to get to know places and encounter people with the same curiosity to explore and learn about the world and each other. I love to enter others’ worlds in this way and feel it just levels up traveling so much, making possible memorable encounters instead of sight seeing from one tourist spot to the next.
Also, getting to know other couchsurfers adds another layer of excitement and learning to my travels. I’ve had such good experiences with super caring and fun hosts, making me feel at home and gifted.
I haven’t lived in a space where I could host people myself, unfortunately, but I am looking forward to be able to invite people into my home and life in the future!
